Nothing To Say lyrics

Song information

Artist: Jethro Tull
Album: Benefit

Lyrics

Everyday there's someone asking
"What is there to do
Should I love or should I fight
Is it all the same to you?"
No, I say, I have the answer
Proven to be true
But if I were to share it with you
You would stand to gain
And I to lose
Oh I couldn't bear it
So I've got nothing to say
Nothing to say
Every morning pressure forming
All around my eyes
Ceilings crash, the walls collapse
Broken by the lies
That your misfortune brought upon us
And I won't disguise them
So don't ask me will I explain -
I won't even begin to tell you why
No, just because I have a name
Well I've got nothing to say
Nothing to say

Climb a tower of freedom
Paint your own deceiving sign
It's not my power
To criticize or to ask you to be blind
To your own pressing problem
And the hate you must unwind
So ask of me no answer
There is none that I could give
You wouldn't find
I went your way ten years ago
And I've got nothing to say
Nothing to say
